Tierra del Sol Resort & Golf

The views are stunning, of course the wind blew very hard but that is to be expected. The pace of play was great! I felt that the course could be in a little better shape. The staff were great and very friendly. I'll definitely be back.

Reviews of the ocean ,lighthouse, Cliffs,wildlife, borrowing owls ,lizards holes etc. and the challenge of the course was the highlight of my cruise vacation!

I did some reviews on the courses and people were saying that course conditions were a bit rough and they may have been but overall for a course on a desert island I found it was very well-maintained. Had people working out the whole time we were there to make sure that you enjoyed yourself in the conditions were great for area that’s not known for getting rain. I had no problems it’s not Pebble Beach but it is Robert Trent Jones Course very well designed super cool holes . I made a friend from Canada vacationing in Aruba there that showed me around very enjoyable his name was Charlie.

I found the staff to be very friendly and allowed me to go off a little earlier, which helped with the short time I had to complete it before sunset because of the time roll back took me 2 1/2 hours and thanks to Golfnow actually able to play The course for the same price of a round-trip taxi will remember it forever. Have fun I suggest it to everyone.! I ended up shooting an 87 for the first time on a course that I’ve never played, which was very satisfying.

Course has great features it’s very challenging.staff is really friendly.

Tierra Del Sol is the only 18 hole golf course on Aruba. The only other course on the island is The Links at Divi, which is only 9 holes.

I’ve been coming to Aruba for 20+ years and I have played Tierra Del Sol every time I’ve been here.

The course gets worse every year. It’s as if the owners of the course know that they have the only 18 hole course available and don’t need to maintain it for that reason.

From tee to green, the course is in terrible shape.

The tees have very little grass.

Fairways are indistinguishable from the rough with some fairways not even mowed.

Bunkers have hard packed sand and weeds.

Every green had large patches of dead grass.

I don’t look to be catered to at any golf course but at this one, no one even greeted me at the bag drop area or offered to take my bag and put it on the cart.

Honestly, the only reason I play this course every year, is because I can’t spend every day on the beach doing nothing.

If your looking to play golf while on vacation, Aruba is not the place to go and Tierra Del Sol is not the place to play.

Great layout from Robert Trent Jones. I have come every 3-4 years since Tierra Adel Sol opened. This was the worse condition I’ve seen. I’m guessing the heat and humidity is tough to handle. And the course may not be getting enough play to justify the chemicals and water needed.

Wishing they could get it back to conditions of 20 years ago.

The greens and tee boxes, especially the tee boxes need work. There is either unmowed grass or no grass on the majority of the tee boxes. The greens roll ok, there are some rough areas they avoid using for the holes.

The fairways are in good condition

The greens are spotty

The tee boxes are in terrible condition, either they are not mowed or there is no grass to be mowed.

Range balls also need to be updated.

I enjoy playing Tierra del Sol.

Pace of play was great.

The tee boxes were in pretty bad shape, the greens were a little worn in many spots but they did roll surprisingly well.

The GolfNow Hot Deal rate made it well worth the price.

Awesome course!!!! Layout was great. Totally different than anything I’ve played before. Desert type course. I was told the trade winds make the course really difficult. I lucked out. Barely any wind the entire round!!! Which led me to score my best rd EVER!!!!! Being little wind the humidity was high. Course was HOT!!!! Plenty of water on course and a cold towel waiting for us when we finished. Nice touch.

Course has dry areas but greens fairways t boxes were fine. It never rains in Aruba so the course does the best it can. Cant hold that against them.

Staff was so friendly and helpful to everything we needed for a great round.

Played mid August. COURSE IS EMPTY!!!!

Was told by staff it gets packed during winter months.

Our 1st time. Played next day. Totally exhausted Played like crap. Will stagger days for our next trip!!!

CANT WAIT TO COME BACK!!!!!

Have been playing this course for many years. Green are not as pristine as in past years. Beautiful scenery, lots of wind, difficult course. Must play in the morn early, too hot in the afternoon.

Have been playing this course for 20+ years. Usually lots of wind and very challenging. Back nine is more difficult. Suggest going out as early as possible. Course can get very, very hot. Great course.

The course is very interesting to play with the scenery and the views. it is certainly challenging with wind but itt was a fun time. Obviously the heat has taken its toll on the course but the overall experience was great.

Always love to play here. It is so unique.

Get your confidence up on the first 3 holes, cause after that it is ON! You'll get humbled by your perfectly struck 175-200 drives into the wind. Practice your stinger at the range and don't skip the putting green before the round. Make sure to stop and take in the awesome views!!!

Don't book too early, as the Hot Deals don't show until a few/couple days in advance. Good luck and have fun.

Driving range is like hitting into a cow pasture. The practice balls are found water balls or balls found in weeds - I’m embarrassed for this course. Every tee box was terrible. Almost every fairway was terrible. Course could be fabulous with watering and attention. 15 out 18 greens are sparse with grass. I will not play course again.

Absolutely love the layout of this course. So much fun! It is in much better shape than a year ago due to rain. Hoping to play this course again this week. I played really well and ended up shooting my personal best score of 74! If you’re in aruba you have to experience a course like this!

We brought our clubs, so can’t comment on rentals. Staff was extraordinarily friendly and helpful. Range is probably worse than the one in Tin Cup, but who cares? You aren’t playing in 30mph winds and realistically looking to go super low. I carry a 7i around 175y at sea level, no wind, baby draw. The wind here would push it 20-30y if blowing across. The scenery is gorgeous, and fairways are clean - almost generously tufted. If you dunk it in the rough, good luck. Not only did I not find mine, I didn’t find anyone’s. It’s thick thick. Play somewhat conservative, and you’ll have a great time. Greens aren’t pristine bent grass, but that doesn’t grow in the Caribbean, so what you get is more variable. But few green sections are truly tough and all are forgivingly slow. The course and facilities will shine again when they get more love. But, for now, enjoy the smart layout, the gorgeous scenery, and try to figure out how your fade and draw gold up against strong winds and beastly gusts.

Not sure why they call this a golf course. Other than just cutting the greens there is absolutely no maintenance. Fairways are rocky and ween grass, bunkers with no sand and not even any racks, when whole experience was a disaster. Worst course I every say or played. Walk off after nine.
